Peace Overtures in Pro Grid Feud
Up to National Loop, Crowley Says
San Francisco, Feb. 14 (U.R)
Sleepy Jim Crowley, commis
sioner of the AU-American pro
football conference, declared to
day that any peace overtures in
the nationwide pigskin feud
would have to come from the
National league owners.
Here to inspect his organiza
tion's local franchise and to line
up officials for next fall's games.
Crowley said his group had done
all it could to effect a reconciliation.
"Over a year ago we offered
to go about building a rival
league on a business-like basis
such as the American and Na
tional in baseball," he said. "But
they rebuffed us."
The commissioner said he was
still burning about National
leaguer Elmer Layden's crack to
"go get a football first.
Since then Crowley said, the
AU-American conference had
done all right.
"We are well established in
our eight cities, have a lot of
talent lined up, are fairly certain
to have good places to play our
games and we can buy a foot
ball any time it is needed," he
said.
AT Kf ANIS MEET
FOR ARGENTINA
Washington. Feb. 14 UR
Congressional demands for the
United States to sever relations
with Argentina piled up today
in the wake of the state depart
ment's "blue book" blast against
the Argentine military regime.
Sen. Joseph F. Guffcy, D.
Pa,., said the nazi-like policies
of Argentina were a grave threat
to democracy. He urged Presi
dent Truman and the state de
partment to proclaim the Argen
tine government "an enemy of
peace, security and freedom.
He proposed that the United
States also Instruct Its delegates
to the United Nations assembly
in London to seek Argentina's
suspension before the current
session ends.
Rep. Emily Taft Douglas, D.,
111., said that "with every major
enemy defeated, it would be
absurd for us after all the trag
edy of World War II to let its
spawn flourish in the Americas."

had their beginning in Grange-sponsored legislation.
Today countless farm trucks speed their produce
over hard-surfaced or well-gravelled Oregon roads.
The movement for better rural roads as a part of
the Grange program is as old as the organization. It
will continue to be a basic Grange policy as long as
the need exists In any part of the State.
Projects of this nature are as vital a part of Grange
activities as better agriculture itself. That is why 28,000
progressive farmers belong to the Oregon State
Grange why membership continues to grow why
the Grange is a dominant force for social progress.
